25. Unkind & Unwise (Grant)
'He was brought up in a house of women. In a city of heat that gave its children. Faith in the fable of coral and fish. Told them the world was something to miss.'
Back to Spring Hill Fair. Quite reminiscent of Talking Heads wit a fine lyric and feel.
24. Dusty In Here (Grant)
'It's cold, it's cold and dusty in here. Someone you knew is watching you.'
Back one more to Before Hollywood. I think a song by Grant in memory of his late father.
23. When People Are Dead (Robert)
'Played cat and mouse games for an hour. Jimmy went down and picked her a flower.'
More death. This time a b-side narrative from Robert.
22.The Wrong Road (Grant)
'When the rain hit the roof. With the sound of a finished kiss. I took the wrong road down.'
From Liberty Belle. One of Grant's very best lyrics.
21.The Sound of Rain (Robert)
'Sometimes the sky is grey. And other times it is white. So he rubs his eyes. And wonders if he's losing his sight.'
'
One of their finest early songs, lyrics and moods.
